Samsung’s Vice President of Product Management for mobile devices, Drew Blackard, kicked off Samsung's latest hardware event with a big plug for AI.
On stage, Blackard confirmed that 75% of Samsung users have “actively engaged” with Galaxy AI with 18 million uses of Galaxy AI in one week, and said that Samsung expects Galaxy AI to reach 200 million devices worldwide by the end of this year.
“This is AI where you need it, when you need it,” Blackard said.
If it wasn't clear before Wednesday, it is now: Samsung is going wild with its Galaxy AI technology. Galaxy AI features like Circle to Search, Sketch to Image, and Live Translation are coming to just about every device you could think of — that includes the newly announced Samsung Galaxy S24 FE, Galaxy Watch FE LTE, Galaxy Tab S10+, and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra.
So, if you're eager to use Samsung's newest AI features on its latest hardware, here's everything you need to know about its recent hardware and AI rollout.
